Purpose: To determine the epidemiological profile of patients who underwent urethrocystoscopy and to present the indications and the results of this endoscopic examination. Patients and Methods: This is a retrospective, descriptive study of all patients who underwent outpatient urethrocystoscopy in the Urology and Andrology department of Grand Mbour hospital. The epidemiological data of the patients, the indications, the results of the endoscopic exploration and the additional procedures performed were entered and analyzed with Excel 2016. We performed descriptive statistics. Results: Of the 216 patients who underwent outpatient urethrocystoscopy, we counted 179 men (82.87%) and 37 women (17.13%). The sex ratio was 4.84. The mean age of the patients was 53.71 ± 18.76 years (age range 17 to 91 years). The main indications were lower urinary tract disorders (60.18%) and hematuria (28.70%). Endoscopic exploration revealed prostatic tumor in 69 patients (31.9%), 29 cases of bladder tumors (13.4%) and 19 cases of bilharzia cystitis (8.8%). The urethrocystoscopy was normal in 32 patients (14.8%). Conclusion: Urethrostoscopy is an endoscopic exploration examination that can be performed on an outpatient basis. Lower tract urinary disorders and hematuria were the main indications.展开更多

Type 2 diabetes accounts for 90% of all diabetics. Despite the few specialists, there is a policy of decentralization of these patients. Patients and Methods: This was a retrospective cross-sectional study of the records of diabetic subjects followed in ambulatory at the internal medicine department of the EPS of Mbour. The recruitment of our patients took place over a period of sixty-three (63) days (from 03 May 2021 to 05 July 2021). Results: During the study period we collected 163 patients and most of those were female with a sex ratio of 0.68. The most represented age group was 46 - 55 years;82.8% of patients came from Mbour. Diabetes was initially discovered in 65 patients (39.9%) and known in 98 patients. 72 patients in our population had previous follow-ups in a health facility;Almost all of the 146 patients had at least one FDR of T2D, i.e. 89.6%. Cardiovascular risk factors were present in 96 patients. The majority of patients (138) came for simple follow-up, 11 for acute complications and 16 for chronic complications. 36 patients in our population had at least one microangiopathic complication of diabetes, 18 a macroangiopathic complication and 18 an infectious complication. In our study, 102 patients had a very high cardiovascular risk, 42 patients had a high risk, and 19 patients had a moderate risk. Conclusion: Diabetes is a real public health emergency because of its magnitude and complications. A strengthening of the policies of decentralization of the management will allow better management of patients who are not from Dakar.展开更多
